85.10 ‑ Shavers, hair clippers and hair-removing appliances, with self-contained electric motor.
This heading covers electric shavers and hair clippers which have a built‑in electric motor or vibrator, whether for use on human beings, or for shearing sheep or for grooming horses, clipping cattle, etc.
In electric shavers (dry shavers) rotating or reciprocating cutters or knife blades slide along the inside of a perforated or slotted plate, thus cutting those hairs which protrude through the perforations or slots. In the case of hair clippers, a comb‑like cutter blade slides to and fro over a fixed metal comb thus cutting the hair or wool which is caught between the teeth of the combs. Hair clippers for barbers' use operate on a similar principle to those for sheep shearers, grooms, etc., but differ in size.
This heading also covers electro-mechanical hair-removing appliances with self-contained electric motor; these appliances, which grip the hair and pluck it out at the root, may operate with either a micro-roller, or a metal spiral which rotates around its own axis, or a guard, a depilating head and a set of depilating wheels.
PARTS
Subject to the general provisions regarding the classification of parts (see the General Explanatory Note to Section XVI), parts of electric shavers, hair clippers or hair-removing appliances are also classified here. These include, inter alia, cutter heads, cutter blades, knife blades and comb blades.
Hair clippers operated by a flexible shaft driven by a separate electric motor are classified in heading 82.14, the electric motor (whether or not equipped with the flexible shaft) being classified in heading 85.01.
